Her brother wept and told his family "I'm sorry" after he was charged in connection to her fatal shooting yesterday.

Derek Boyd was before Dublin District Court which heard that he faces two charges which relate to a "terrible accident" and "heartbreaking tragedy."

Mr Boyd was charged with unlawful possession or control of a Kahr CW9 semi automatic pistol.

The 27-year-old, also of Collins Place in Finglas, was also further charged with possession or control of five live rounds of 9mm luger ammunition.
